Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Bray is a consultant and strategy leader with 12 years of experience accelerating clean energy and climate technologies, currently advising LabStart on data center sustainability and securing philanthropic support from hyperscalers. He has steered multimillion-dollar public programs at the U.S. Department of Energy—designing funding priorities, building data dashboards, and creating novel instruments like insurance and offtake-template programs to de-risk adoption of advanced energy tech. His background blends market-facing advisory work at Aurora Energy Research and VC strategy at MXV Ventures with hands-on engineering and trading roots, giving him a rare mix of policy, finance, and technical fluency. Based in Oakland, he’s skilled at translating market research into executable programs and funding structures that bridge the “missing middle” for commercialization. Notably, he combines lean manufacturing instincts from early industrial engineering roles with a policy-focused MS from the University of Chicago to craft pragmatic, impact-driven strategies.
